First of all, I love teaching private lessons to individuals, couples, families and friends. I will work with you as much as possible to make our sessions convenient and affordable. Private sessions are a wonderful opportunity to answer questions and concerns that there may not be time to address in group classes.
Private lessons can be structured however you like. They can be Questions and Answers, learning how to practice at home, how to use props, how to use the yoga-wall ropes, how to set-up special props for Restorative Yoga, Supported Backbends and Inverted Poses, etc. We can focus on certain categories of poses including Restorative Yoga, Standing Poses, Forward Bends, Back Bends, Twists, Inverted Poses, Lying Down Poses, Hip Openers, etc.
Private lessons are highly recommended if you have back, neck , knee, shoulder, wrist, or hip problems or are recovering from surgery or injuries. Or if you are coping with health issues such as chronic fatigue, arthritis, osteoporosis, Parkinson's disease, Multiple Sclerosis, heart disease, high blood pressure, headaches, women's health issues, etc., Many health conditions can be helped by planning a yoga program just for you and modifying yoga poses to fit your needs and abilities.
The in-depth attention of a private lesson can help you understand how to use yoga so that your yoga practice is truly healing and nurturing.
Private lessons are also recommended for experienced students who wish to deepen their personal practice.
If you are not attending group classes, a minimum of two sessions is recommended. As part of the first lesson, I will recommend a personalized sequence of poses to practice at home. One or more follow up sessions are recommended to fine-tune the postures that were given in the first session and to add any other appropriate postures. Follow-up sessions are available daily, weekly, monthly or even yearly as is appropriate to your proximity and individual situation.
